Top 20 Video Sharing Sites
Another comprehensive review of online video sites. Someone needs to make a “top 20 list of online video site reviews.” Maybe I’ll do that. Tomorrow.

A new entrant to the online video space… The Daily Reel bills itself as a “news magazine that covers online video, selects the best content, and offers critical analysis from the industry’s top journalists.” This one looks for real. Here’s the “about.” Contributors include Matthew Ross (Variety), Anthony Kaufman, (indieWire, Wall Street Journal Online), Marjorie…
I’ve written about YouTube gatherings before (here’s a previous post with a few of the websites devoted to gathering and meetups). On July12, YouTube community members will descend upon Philadelphia. For more information on this event, or to share information about your own event, please visit the new Ning group I established for gatherings. Here’s…
My son and I were in Annie over the weekend, and I played Bert Healy, the host of the Oxydent Hour of Smiles. He sings “You’re Never Fully Dressed Without a Smile.” Yeah I bought a Barber Shop hat (Skimmer) but the director wanted me in this little baseball hat. The video is annotated to…
This is a great parody of the fact that Apple has released iTunes software that includes iPhone ringtones… even in Canada where you can’t buy an iPhone even if you wanted. The video is one of the “funniest of the day” on YouTube, but perhaps this comment posted by is even funnier: If (User.Country ==…
Landlord Pearl now plays Lieutenant Pearl in the latest FunnyorDie video featuring Will Ferrell. It’s called “Good Cop, Baby Copy,” but it’s unfortunately her last video. FunnyorDie is a collaboration between Will Ferrell and Adam McKay (who directed Ferrell in “Anchorman,” and “Talladega Nights” and wrote for him for “Saturday Night Live”). Michael Kvamme, a partner at…
… be hurting you. Why do keep writing about video search-engine optimization? Your viewers or customers are increasingly using specific terms in their search, and including the word “video” into searches more than the word “sex.” In the past 5 years the term “how to” has grown steadily as a search phrase (Google analytics).

Here are the one’s I like.
Atom Films – higher quality more professional films, revenue sharing
Reel to reel – higher quality, more professional videos.
Revver – opportunity for revenue sharing but difficult to get exposure for your video. No groups to join that I could find. They take any video except hard porn. There is some sort of review process for selecting videos for Verizon VCast that in my opinion is not very good. The majority of their videos on V-cast aren’t that great even though they have lots of great stuff avilable on their site that they could use instead. The contests are interesting and fun.
Flixya – opportunity for revenue sharing but difficult to expose your video. Haven’t seen any contests yet. No groups to join.
Friendster- Very difficult to embed a video from another site. It can be done, but only in a round about way.
Jumpcut – bad quality video but best web design by far. It’s the best site for getting videos viewed by others), more contests than all others I have seen. By far, the most fun. The major two downfals are the you can’t embed videos from other sites, and the quality is not as good as others mentioned above.
Magnify.net – This is best for small private groups. Don’t expect high exposure from the groups within this site.
Here is a link to a very good discussion anout the top sharing sites. I found it quite useful and didn’t see anything that I disagreed with. The only thing I would add is that Jumpcut’s web design is superior. However, their video quality is not nearly as good as the majority of their competitors, and there is no way to wornload a video from their site.
